Network Airline Services and Air Malta Support the Royal British Legion’s Poppy Appeal

November 21, 2017

Network Airline Services and Air Malta have assisted the Royal British Legion by carrying a shipment of red poppies and other memorabilia onboard one of their operating aircraft from London to Malta.

John Gilfeather, Sales Director, says, “The Legion spends nearly £1.6 million a week delivering health and welfare support. They offer everything from bereavement counselling for families of those who have been killed in action, to helping those who have been injured get compensation and helping servicemen returning to civilian life.”

Last year, Air Malta raised a total of €29,000 towards the relief and welfare of Maltese and British ex-service men and women.

“We are delighted to support causes such as the Poppy Appeal, which helps raise awareness and funds for people who have sacrificed so much,” says John Vella, Air Malta’s Head of Cargo Sales & Marketing.
